“...348 weeks, huh.”

Before starting my own town, I figured I’d check out the previous owner’s town. Hiroyuki stopped playing in 2003 and didn’t get past the tutorial. I’m guessing he started over before selling this. Thank god it’s not my town, too, because this is the worst layout I’ve ever seen.

The shop is in 1-1, and there’s no bridge over the river there. I honestly thought it was inaccessible at first. The only way to it is behind the house in 3-1. Unbelievable.

The other thing that surprised me was Boris sporting a different design. I had no idea it was changed for the international release. How arbitrary. He was rocking that eyeshadow!

The clock thought it was January 9th, 2014, so it still works I guess, just horribly out of sync. I own e+ too, which has many more features, so there’s not much of a reason to play this barebones one without the museum, Able Sisters, or the like, but I might mess around with it for kicks anyway. Always exciting starting a new town. The villager houses are still the most interestingly decorated in the series, so here are some of Hiroyuki’s villagers’ houses.

I’ve never met Tutu before! She’s so cute! She basically called me a dumbass, how precious.

Tutu said “Hello” to me, and said she’s been studying a bit of English! She’s so adorable. One of my favorite villagers now.
